For each game-type a live jackpot is collected over several rounds.
The jackpot is composed of player stakes from rounds in which less than 50% of the players made it to the next round.
In each game there is a jackpot that can be won by reaching a particular round (the jackpot round). When you’ve won the jackpot round, you get the winnings from your share of the live jackpot in addition to your round winnings. If you lose the round after the live jackpot round, your jackpot winnings are still safe.
Every player that wins the live jackpot round gets a portion of the live jackpot. The total jackpot is divided by the number of winners and portioned out to each. If you’re the only player to win the live jackpot round, then the total live jackpot is credited to your account.
